I sat at work today and waded through the past 5 pages trying to figure out what the hell you were talking about.

Came home and saw the picture :doh:

yup, you guessed it right! The Tahoe is nice but this ought to do the trick as well. It has the same interior as the Hoe, so it is a little more "spiffy" then the average farm truck. Just wish it was a diesel.

My Dad has towed my XJ a couple of times for me. His is a 08, 2500HD x-cab with the 6.0. Towed it like a dream. He's not had any trouble out the truck at all........other than the occasional deer encouter.:gee:

That's good to hear Mike, is that the truck you were telling me about at WF? I am pretty stoked about getting this truck, it will actually be mine and not the "farms", so hopefully it will stay in good shape for a while.

Probably.
Dad's is a 2wd. His employer won't go for the 4x4. There's usually a backhoe within radio/phone range so they can't see spending the extra cash. This was the first time they did go with the 3/4 tons though.

Man teleconferences suck....at least I can still hang out on here while they are gabbing...blah blah blah....

The painting is finished in the house (one small touch-up to finish tonight,) all of the trim plates and registers are back on, and one final run with a steam cleaner over the carpets tonight. The movers are working next Monday & Tuesday, cable is scheduled for installation Tuesday morning (TV & Internet, 10mbps down.)

Time to start sorting through crap. If I haven't opened the box in the last 3 years, there's a good chance it's going straight to the dumpster.

On a side note, I scored a 20# CO2 cylinder and 3 draft faucets with 8" shanks last weekend for a C-note. The cylinder alone runs $120 new. I've got a new chest freezer that I need to build a collar for, and I'm 90% of the way to kegging.

I did not make it there this year, the end of ski season snuck up on me. My housemate did go and had a blast. The Lac la Belle Lodge has the "Keweenaw Melt" that is a killer sandwich.

I didn't get out once this year.
Started the season tearing my plantar fascia, then things got tight, money wise.
I even bought new boots before the season that I never got to use.
Best midwest snow season in memory and I got nada.

My 10# cylinder cost me more than that. Just remember though, once you go keg, you never wanna bottle again!

I don't doubt that for a second.

I am thinking about changing my name to 486 0829

Almost done tearing down the Chicago site....all equipment out of racks and in crates. A pallet full of usable cables, another pallet of trash cables.

After 8 years of that stuff running in a Sprint switch it was filthy.....I need a bath.

Wednesday will see me removing 7 racks.....and trying to figure out Sprints "earthquake proof" mounting.

Most of the guys working there don't remember our stuff not there, gonna be a shock when we pull the racks out.

Where is the stuff going to?

In order to have 4 new tires on the jeep, I only need to buy one new tire. I can use the new tires on the trailer, and the new spare on the jeep with one new tire to have a full set. Then I could use the old tires on the trailer and as a spare, and have an extra spare.

Only problem is I can't find a 35x12.50R15 BFG MT KM anywhere, and apparently they aren't making them anymore.

I am about tempted just to get rid of the whole thing, but can't think of anything better to replace it with.

Hey Travis, let me make a few calls and I might be able to find ya one. Hows the new shop comming along?

I would greatly appreciate it.

The store is open, and doing great. My inventory is a mess, the NAPA boys have done inventory 3 times and still don't have it right.

Travis - may have one for you. I called Discount Tire in Indianapolis and they show one left in a warehouse. They are going to double check for me and let me know. If they have it, I can pick it up this weekend for you and we'll figure out how to get it to you.

Edit: Their computer was wrong (imagine that). They don't have any more.

I did check www.tyres1.com, and they show a 35" KM, but doesn't say how many they have. Might be worth checking out.
